About Me



Singing, writing, and recording music for more than 5 years using nothing but a cheap $5 mic, some simple apps, and the amazing open source piece of software known as Audacity. My vocals aren't what they could be in all my songs, but that's quite alright, as I will continue to evolve as a musician as time moves on.

My equipment includes a five year old Tradition Stratocaster, Squier Esprit, Fender acoustic, and Crate GFX-120

I'm currently working on a new album consisting mostly of acoustic songs and works, and am planning on setting up gigs at local venues in and around the Cleveland area. I hope that you all show me support in my ongoing efforts to get my name out and end my years of being on the outside looking in.

Band Website: http://www.audiri.com/allanhall
Influences: Matt Nathanson, Matt(hew) Good (Band), Jeff Buckley, K's Choice, Ben Kweller, Bayside, Incubus, Rolling Stones, The Interns, Jimmy Eat World, Starsailor, The Forecast, The Skies We Built, Foo Fighters, Teddy Geiger, Jack Johnson, Eisley, Goo Goo Dolls, Creed, Love Outside Andromeda, at least for my acoustic work... Quite a bit of anime and video game musical artists, including Nobuo Uematsu. (Come on, orchestral mixed with 80s metal is good stuff)Since I can't really tell you exactly what I'm thinking musically all the time and can't give you ALL of my influences, the last.fm site could at least show you what I'm listening to most of all at any given time. =)

This is my MUSIC space

Because I'm too lazy to make this my mainspace and because I've got a lot of people on the other one, this space is only for my music for the moment. I might make this my main, but we'll see.
